Jennings v. Jennings

16 Vt. 607

Opinion

The facts in the case were, in substance, that the petitioner was in feeble health and had two children, of whom the petitionee was the father. The petitionee was without property, but was able by his labor to support his family ; but since May, 1841, he had abandoned them, refusing to render them any assistance whatever.

The Court refused to grant the divorce on the same ground, substantially, as in the case of Mandigo v. Mandigo, 15 Vt. 786.
